The African British composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (1875--1912) was propelled into fame following the popularity of his Hiawatha cantatas trilogy (1898--1900), which became some of the most widely performed pieces of music in the Anglophone world in the opening decade of the twentieth century. In this volume, Benedict Taylor gives an in-depth account of the music and political significance of Coleridge-Taylor as a composer through the early twentieth-century reception history of his Hiawatha trilogy.
